  1. Re:What about the economics? on Hydrogen Stored in Safe High Density Pellets · · Score: 1

    No, probably not in the US - but it will in other parts of the world, and so they fall more behind...

  2. Re:Hold on, more info in the summary than the arti on Hydrogen Stored in Safe High Density Pellets · · Score: 1

    The article referenced mentions nothing regarding hydrogen loss

    That's because its not an article, but some commercial blurp on the newly formed company. This information is in the pressreleases send out, most of which are only in Danish in the moment.

    The closest thing at the moment is this. - and they even get it wrong by saying "[the]...hydrogen pill doesn't lose energy when it is used" - In a couple of days it should be all over.

  3. Re:How does it come out? on Hydrogen Stored in Safe High Density Pellets · · Score: 1

    I won't comment on their implementation but others have failed here.


    I won't comment on their implementation, but these guys have had this working for 6 months (waiting for patents a copyrights to clear).

  4. Yeah... on PSP Smashes Sales Records in the UK · · Score: 1

    ...the kids need something to watch all the movies they download on.

  5. Re:Dunno about WoW... on WoW Helping or Hurting the Industry? · · Score: 1

    Yes, but the whole point was, what right do they have to do that. And that EULA shouldn't be valid in a just country (nobody reads them and nobody agrees to them).

  6. Don't forget Google Earth on Post-Katrina Images on Google Maps · · Score: 1

    For better overview and more options, don't forget Google Earth:

    Damage assement, see it at a glance

    NOAA overlays updated as new info comes in.

  7. Just remember! on Help Beta Test Slashdot CSS · · Score: 1

    * DON'T abuse stylesheets to lock fonts in a tiny (unreadable size), not for any default skin.

    * And DONT specify line height, since you can't disable that in MSIE when you tell it to ignore font sizes (meaning all letters end up on top of each other)

    * And DONT set the scroll bar to the same color as the background, making it invisible to some of us with less that optimal eyesight.

    thank you.

  8. Re:Donating to freenet will not solve anything on Australian Court says Kazaa Users Breach Copyright · · Score: 1

    Why do you think that?

  9. Re:Flash Commoditizes Windows on Adobe and Macromedia Shareholders Approve Merger · · Score: 1

    One thing that surprises me is how most people miss the point that flash isn't just about animation any more. It's a platform! Consider this, ActionScript is a full featured OO language. Flash is installed on almost any computer.

    Yeah, and on how many is it blocked? It is on mine, if I come to an empty website (ie, one written in flash) I assume they are unprofessional amateurs and move on.
    Usually it takes long to long, makes a lot of noise, is slow to navigate (because they have to include a lot of crap animation) and worst of all they tend to use very small graphics which is unreadable (unless you are 18 like the designer) - and while flash tend to have a "zoom" menu which might actually make things readable most twits disable that. Flash sucks, and I hope they go out of business, damn discriminators.

  10. Re:Stop the lame excuses. on Balmer Vows to Kill Google · · Score: 1

    Why do you think morals shouldn't be relative? If they are absolute you are a fanatic (and usually blowing something up)

  11. Re:Rest in peace my friend on Chief Justice Rehnquist Dies at 80 · · Score: 1

    That shows a certain passion, a certain true belief in what you're doing.


    Yeah, and that belief seemed to be that blacks are subhuman, women should know their place, and that goverment has absolute right over individuals. Only if Bush appoints someone worse is this a sad day for others than his family.

  12. Re:Obvious issues... on Chief Justice Rehnquist Dies at 80 · · Score: 1

    And amusingly enough, most of the world think of the US as a much of religious crackpots - wonder where that came from *g*

  13. Just dont.. on Evidence Dinosaurs Are Like Giant Chicks · · Score: 3, Funny

    ...stand underneath when they lay an egg!

  14. Re:Steve Ballmer Soprano on Balmer Vows to Kill Google · · Score: 1

    Of course I don't agree that throwing a chair is violence, unless you throw it at someone.

  15. Re:Steve Ballmer Soprano on Balmer Vows to Kill Google · · Score: 1

    Surely everybody can be so stressed out and upset that they have a "tantrum", I think its wrong to say otherwise. If you've never been in such a situation, then perhaps you've never engaged yourself enough in something.

  16. Re:Are you allowed to post that on Balmer Vows to Kill Google · · Score: 1

    They are not saying he said that, they are saying someone else said he said that (in a court of law).

  17. Re:It is nice to know. on Balmer Vows to Kill Google · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is at war, software is just an annoyance that gets in the way.

  18. Its not Digital Rights Management on EFF Releases Music DRM Guide · · Score: 3, Informative

    Its Digital Restrictions Management, get it right Slashdot ;)

  19. Re:Library Checkout System Outdated? on Libraries Use DRM to Expire Audiobooks · · Score: 1

    There are always some people who agree with anything. Those who had slaves thought that was cool too.

  20. Re:Library Checkout System Outdated? on Libraries Use DRM to Expire Audiobooks · · Score: 1

    No, it doesn't work that way. If a system is wrong it is wrong and should be stopped even if nobody can think of "a better way". But when its stopped the incentive will be there to think of something.

  21. Re:DRM on Libraries Use DRM to Expire Audiobooks · · Score: 1

    I know there are some here who defend this with "you buy a licence to play the music", not a licence to own it.

    There are evil people on slashdot?

  22. Re:Library Checkout System Outdated? on Libraries Use DRM to Expire Audiobooks · · Score: 1

    Ah, but then licensing is evil and one must say so at all times.

  23. Of course EULAs aren't legally valid anyway on Flash EULA Doesn't Fit the Times · · Score: 1

    or shouldn't be anyway.

  24. Re:Slashdot chages their minds... on Google Seeks to Develop Parallel Internet? · · Score: 1

    Plonk.

  25. Re:Slashdot chages their minds... on Google Seeks to Develop Parallel Internet? · · Score: 1

    love it, Google has not charged me for a single thing.

    Hitler and Saddam didn't charge people either, that doesn't mean people couldn't hate them.
